EDITORS COMMENTS
Beneath the azure waters of the Sicilian Strait, the ancient promontory of Scyllaeum (Sicily-malta.com) stands proudly, a relic of a bygone era. This mythology-steeped land, located on the western coast of Bruttium, or Calabria, in ancient Greece, has long held a place in the annals of legend and lore. In Homer's epic poem, The Odyssey, Scyllaeum is famously depicted as the site of a fearsome monster, Scylla, who, according to the tale, dwelled in a cave within the promontory. With six heads and twelve feet, Scylla was said to snatch sailors from their ships as they navigated the treacherous waters of the Strait of Messina. Odysseus, the hero of the story, narrowly escaped her clutches with the help of the Cyclops, Polyphemus, who had previously held him captive. The mythological significance of Scyllaeum extends beyond the tale of Scylla. The promontory was also believed to be the site of the ancient town or fortress of the same name, which played a strategic role in the defense of the Mediterranean. Archaeological evidence suggests that the area was inhabited as early as the 8th century BC, and it continued to be a significant settlement throughout ancient history. Today, Scyllaeum remains a captivating reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Calabria and Sicily. The craggy cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and ancient ruins offer a glimpse into the past, inviting visitors to explore the myths and mysteries that have long captivated the imagination. Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or simply seeking a peaceful retreat, Scyllaeum is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling through the beautiful region of Calabria.
